Gene Baur, President and Co-founder of Farm Sanctuary, exposes
the cruel reality behind "downers", animals that are too sick or
weak to walk to the kill floor. These poor creatures are often
subjected to extreme cruelty, including being dragged, kicked,
prodded, and beaten to get them to the kill floor. Because of the
pressure of concerned consumers and in response to a petition
submitted by Farm Sanctuary requesting that the USDA extend the "no
downer" regulations to pigs, sheep, goats, and other animals, the
agency announced that it will accept public comment on the issue.

It is appalling that even the weakest and sickest of God's farmed
animals are not shown any compassion or mercy! Consumers need to
face the brutal reality they are supporting and decide to make a
change of heart by transitioning to a plant-based diet, which
clearly shows that good stewards of God's Creation do not approve of
cruelty to God's animals.
